Gordon R Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 Had 3 x CR500's - one in the 250 frame (Hybrid). None were as quick as the KTM 380 two stroke. Mega quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il cacciatore Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 I've got a Yamaha TDR250 as you well know . Yes it is a two stroke and hence i've been in at the guts of it already having only owned it 6 months or so. Some photos of when the engine was stripped down. It blew a barrel gasket so had to replace it. Looks like the last person never torqued it correctly the last time it was to bits. Got a silver TZR front waiting to go on it encase your wondering why it has two different wheels. Its smaller to make the front end abit lighter. A vid of before the barrel gasket went on it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpcX0Y_MV9I Another vid of a TDR250 acceleration (not mine though): Hopefully wanting to get a when I stop being a student. :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the last engineer Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 suzuki C90T, the season is very short here so riding becomes a pleasure, hoping to cruise down to the states in the summer, way too much white stuff on the roads at the moment.

Devon Fox Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 Very nice indeed! It will be a road bike for me, r6 or similiar i was thinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziplex Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 After the moped days I had a Suzuki X7, CB750f, CB750kz Honda's, DR400 Suzuki, 2 x GPZ900's, 2 X FJR1200, FZR1000 (pre exup), Aprilia Falco, Suzuki GSX1400 and now a V Strom 1000.....The Falco was mustard, went very well and handled superb, I loved the bike but it hated me and poked me in the back every time I rode it (canted over a bit too much). The GSX was a big cuddly monster and if that's your thing then there is little to better it.....doesn't handle too well but it was never meant to and it rotted before my very eyes! did enjoy it though. The VStrom is still up for sale as it just aint being used. (brilliant all rounder if you're into twins) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 Started on Mopeds then when i passed my Test i bought a 400 Ninja Then when someone decided to pull out in front of me and re arrange the bikes front end and engine casings i ended up off the road for a tad! :yp: Then when settlement came through i managed to get a tidy CB500 Then rode round on a ZXR750 for a while Then i got a GSX600 till i was nearly killed over 4 times in the same day and put a nice dent in a Van with my boots when he near blind sided me I got rid of it as i need to stick about for at LEAST the next 5 years for my Son. I got bored (itchy fingers) you know what i mean and HAD to get a bike but with having next to no money i ended up buying an Import Still it does the job but is slow as cold treacle off a spoon I miss the power LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
